## Abstract Thymuses of 14โdayโold AKR mouse embryos were infected with Gross murine leukemia virus (MuLV) and then maintained in organ culture for 3 weeks. When they were transplanted to 3โweekโold (AKR X C3H)F~1~ mice, approximately 50% of these developed T lymphomas within 3โ4 months. Most (22/2
## Abstract Mousee interferon (IFN) was found to inhibit murine sarcoirus (MSV)induced neoplastic transformation of normal rat kidney (NRK) cells. This effect was observed upon examining the formation of foci of morphologically altered cells and colonies of anchorageโindependent cells. IFN had no c
## Abstract Rifampicin has a marked inhibitory effect on Rauscherโvirusโinduced leukaemia. Up to 90% inhibition of splenomegaly can be achieved when the drug is administered immediately after infection. It is suggested that these results may have implications for a rational leukaemia therapy.
## Abstract Foci of transformed cells, produced by MSV(124), appeared to result only from the primary infection, since this virus stock yielded a virusโnonproducing infection. On the other hand, the majority of foci scored in MSV/MLVโinfected cultures, were generated by multiple secondary infection
